Sake was born in Antwerp, Belgium in 1970. By the age of 12 he had already started scratching, not knowing that this was to be the foundation for his future. In 1984, after watching the early hip hop movie 'Beat Street', learning the art of cutting and scratching became his obsession – Hip Hop had changed his world forever. In 1987, long before MTV had hit Europe, Tony McKenzie (Bigga) – all round entertainer and founder of Funk You employed Sake in his club. Within a year, with the help of Bigga and Safe P, Sake shaped himself into a one-man show.

In 1987, long before MTV had hit Europe, Tony McKenzie (Bigga) – all round entertainer and founder of Funk You employed Sake in his club. Within a year, with the help of Bigga and Safe P, Sake shaped himself into a one-man show.

In 1991, Sake became the DMC Champion for Belgium however whilst his interest in this style of DJing faded, his love for hip hop continued to grow. Reggae music and culture also had a great influence and this interest led him to study the art of freestyling on the mic – now the urge to hype the crowd became his main interest. Meanwhile House music started to take over from Hip Hop / R&B as the main music of choice in European clubs. Many DJs made the switch as it was more lucrative financially, but Sake stayed true to his heart and secured a residency in a small room in Café Local, a large, trendy club in Antwerp. Although relatively small and had little promotion, this 'club within a club' – called Heaven – managed to attract Hip Hop and R&B clubbers from Belgium, Holland, Germany and France simply by word of mouth alone.

In 1997, he soon attracted the attention of Rene Boonstra, owner of Mondial in Holland which together with Challenge were the first 'superclubs' in Europe happy to host urban music club nights. This was the perfect setting in which to express himself freely and reach out to a large volume of people on a weekly basis. Five months later, he joined forces with his long-time rival in the business – DJ Cosmic. The Supreme Team was founded in October 1997 and it wasn't long before Sake & Cosmic became the most sought after DJ team in Europe, playing at all the big artist after-parties – from Jay Z to P Diddy, Usher to Missy, J-Lo to Destiny's Child – they did them all – including a memorable night with The Artist Formally Known As Prince.

In 2005, DJ Sake went solo once again, switched from analogue to digital DJing and still keeps himself on top of the game and king of the clubs promoting the likes of Akon, Kid Capri, Camilo, Jazzy Jeff, Grandmaster Flash, Tommek, Cut Killer & Abdel, as well as developing younger, less experienced up and coming DJs in Europe.

Today, Sake still continues to play at Mondial managing one of the most successful events in Europe – 'Hot Sunday Nights' which celebrates it's 14h Birthday in June 2011. Sake, has a weekly residency as well in Belgium's most notorious house club La Rocca, each Friday on the concept night " Forever Funky" witch is the best running Hip Hop night in the Country at this point.
